Doc D - Ethiopian Flame V2
Custom Breeder & Strain
Doc D - Ethiopian Flame V2 I really enjoyed this strain and I received very positive feedback from everyone I gave it to. The first two plants are a daytime smoke for me. The effects are long lasting and I call it feel good weed. When I smoke it, I feel good. The third plant I harvested is ok for the day if you have to focus and work on a project, but if I have to do something physical, it makes it hard to get out of the chair. One plant is a little sweeter, gassy, pine and that is a little more cloudy headed, pain relief. Plant 2 has a beautiful lavender smell. There are many other smells in there, a little gas, but sweet floral lavender dominate the nose and taste. The lavender/floral smelling plant has the red sap trait. Plant 3 I harvested (journal is separate from this 1) is probably my favorite. After some cure I am getting citrus sweet notes, some spices, sandlewood, and maybe some gas. Great flavors and the effects are the strongest of the 3. Feels very spacey, uplifting, happy, makes my limbs heavy, relaxing, introspective, Love it. One or two friends didn't love Plant 2 because they like their HEAVY strains, but they still enjoyed the flavor and smell. I would give then Plant 3 to try, but it is my favorite, so that's staying in the head stash. 😁 Update a couple months later: I took a couple week break from the strain and loaded some in the bong and it is hitting hard. High as heck. Love the effects. Spacey, happy, cloudy, motivated. More details below.

Added the harvest of the 3rd female to this grow report. I popped 6 seeds and I had 3 females:2/3 males (I don't remember if I sexed every plant). The 3rd female I culled early in veg. I needed the space and I dropped a power cord on her, cracked her main stem, so she was set back slightly. I took a clone though and she is in week 5 of flower doing very well! I added a pic of her in soil to provide a better idea on the structure of the plants. So out of the 2 I finished, the lavender smelling one I love. I keep going back to those jars, not because it isn't potent, but because I want to smoke it every day. I kept the skeleton of all the plants of my recent harvest in my closet for a couple weeks so I could compost them and I could still smell the lavender. Very strong. Nice color on the buds, they are a little darker. Harvested F61. I saw some amber late week 8. I wanted to take them to 65-70 days, but the other plant threw nanners. The other sweet, more gassy plant threw many many nanners at about F58. I plucked one or two and hoped for the best, but they kept coming. I would say this had another 5-7 days before optimal harvest, but the lavender one was ready. I haven't found any seeds in any of my harvest and I've been through a large portion of it. No real harm, but if you grow this watch your plants Week 8+. The satellite buds were heavy, so a lot of supports were needed. DWC Grow Stats: 8 Days - Germination 25 Days - Veg 61 Days - Flower 94 day grow cycle 10 gallon DWC 8.5-9 ounces E3, the lavender one, presses awesome. The smell is grape kool aid or sweet tarts. The color is a little darker yellow with hints of purple in it. I yield about 21-24% at 190F for 2 minutes. E5 (soil grown) The 3rd female I grew in 5 gallon stonington blend. Amended with fresh EWC, coco, and volcanic rock dust. I top fed fish bone meal week 1, 3, and 5. I messed up the watering during week 7-8ish and let her dry out way too much. She still finished and is awesome. I am happy I ran the third one because it is my favorite out of the bunch. Much more potent. It got hit with a little pollen from the Sky Lotus male I was using. I will end up with about 100 seeds. I didn't pollinate it directly, but it was next to the Amenesia Haze that I pollinated, so I figured it would happen. Thanks for reading and have a good day! πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€

That Flame is a lanky beast! The unbalanced net cup can be a pain - I've got the same thing going on with my Formula One Plus. She's a leaner.

@Oozle, Haha! I used an antique iron! Stability is the one thing I miss about using the 6" pail inserts with the built-in net pots in my buckets. Since switching to 4" net pots and fitting them through a hole cut out of the bucket lid, I've had a couple of leaners. I do like the 4" pots in that they're much less expensive and require far less hydroton.

The garden is looking great. Too true about the mutant plants being the most interesting ones πŸ˜… I look forward to the results of your cloning efforts - have you cloned anything before? That's something I still have to try.

@StunFlower, I have some extra room so I figured if I can keep 1 or 2 nice plants in my stable. Some strains I get so much yield it takes me a year to go thru it. I am hoping the clones will allow me to run more, smaller plants.

@Oozle, Thanks for the info! Sounds to me like your first try was pretty darn successful. It's something I've always been interested in trying. I'll get to it one day!

@StunFlower, ty! I cloned some for the first time last week (8 Ethiopian Flames). I made a little DWC cooler for them. They rooted, but I burned them pretty bad (too much feed). So I am simplifying my strategy this time. The Ethiopian Clones showed roots and are in soil now, so they should make it. I think out of 8 original clones, 6 or 7 made it. Not bad for my first try. I am going to mother 1 of the Ethiopian flames if the smoke is excellent. This time I cut the Alien and Indian, used the rooting hormone and put them right into starter plugs in a humidity dome. Seems much easier than having to manage a reservoir. I will keep you updated with my results.

Congrats on the harvest and thanks for the impressive grow report. Your comments about the terps in the DWC run vs. soil is very interesting. Disappointing that the DWC grow didn't net the expected result this time around - like you say, could be environmental and/or the change in nutes. I recently read that terps in flowers grown in DWC are not as strong as those grown in soil because of the humidity levels associated with DWC - "the plant doesn’t go through the natural short periods of drought that other plants do, which is what increases terpene production." Not sure how true this is - smells a bit like bro-science πŸ˜ƒ

@StunFlower, Well drought stress does increase sugar content in fruit (apples in particular) trees, so I think that's where the theory comes from. But it would take someone to be very precise on how much drought stress and when.. so it isn't just stop watering "x" days before harvest and you get a better terps. So mostly bro science for cannabis growers until there is a study on how much and when to start the drought stress. If it is a fact, it should be reproduceable over and over again. I've had better or the same results with this strain in DWC, so I definitely wouldn't say soil > DWC, just in this instance haha. I'd have to do a lot more plants and a lot more strains before I came to that conclusion. I do get more expressions in soil, but that could be how I feed in DWC, so I've been bringing down my cal-mag and N more lately to see if I can match the color expressions I get in soil.

are you feeding your plants with all 11 products at the same time?
Oozle

@grzegorzdelaurans, no. I am running different nutrient lines for different plants. 1 plant (Alien Rift) is on Ventana nutrients. The other 3 (Ethiopian and North Indian) I am using botanicare. I was trying ventana nutrients out and I didn't have enough nutrients to finish them all. Week 2 of flower I switched all plants except the Alien Rift to botanicare.

@StunFlower, I have clones of it rooted into 1 gallons now. Im hoping to run the clone of it in december. Hoping to get some better pictures of the red/purple as it gets a bit older.

I've had some higher than I'd like water temps as well with the hotter weather we've had this summer. Thankfully it's come down to a more comfortable level (70-71) over the past week or so. Your seedlings look great. Good luck with the new nute line - any reason for the change?
Oozle
Oozle
@StunFlower, A couple reasons. Botanicare is great, cheap, consistent, and easy to use but I have some pH problems. Im hoping this line is more stable. The Silica in this line is more stable than potassium silicate, so I am hoping that alone will help the swings. But the main reason is to try out the FlaVUH product. It has some proprietary stuff in it that is supposed to increase terps etc. IDK how true the stuff is, but it wasn't too expensive and figure I'd give it a shot.

Love the germination cooler, and that exciting lineup of genetics, of course. I look forward to the show! 🌱 πŸ“Ί
